I'm 19. And I have a brand new car, but live at home. Whilst I know my salary is fooking low, I think some people aren't telling the whole truth are they

I earn 15k a year but personally think that's a fair wage straight out of uni with a little experience. Company are paying for Microsoft training and once i pass an exam will wack on £500 per exam.  I'm planning on doing 4 exams per year. More i learn within the company, the more i'm worth come my appraisal next year. Also overtime is available, company mobile and broadband connection paid. If i use my own car on site i get 40p a mile. I'm not at that stage yet but will be in a couple of months i hope. 
 
I think i've got a fair deal tbh 
 
Cleared 1250 this month but think something is screwed up somewhere. Spoke to the girl on Friday in charge or wages who went through a few things and is looking into it. 
 
Hours are long which means i don't go out during the week and waste money. Plus, I’ve a house and car to pay for.

TBH I haven't seen any as being particularly unrealistic. 
 
I think some people might have estimated the top end of any comission they might get but apart from that.

I have to agree with this - I think some may over estimate if there salary takes into account bonus and commission
